In five-paragraph essay give your reason for objecting to the new initiative of the Educational Ministry introducing English language into primary schools.


In our country where teaching English has not yet consolidated in guidance and high schools as an important part of educational programme, it seems that introducing it as a foreign language at the level of primary schools is a very problematic issue. In implementing such a crucial project Educational Ministry should recognizes and takes into the account all of the relevant aspects and the possible threats which can influence on the process of conducting the programme. Unfortunately, it seems that this project with its all deficiencies and problems should be implemented by Ministry of Education in primary schools. Three major problems that have been not properly considered by educational experts can be categorized as educational, cultural and economical aspects of the project.

It is evident that young learners acquire a foreign language or second language more easily and effectively than adults. But it should be noted that the setting in which this acquisition is taking place is also an important matter. In this case the setting is a formal educational setting where most of the people who are involved in are those who do not master on their mother tongue properly. In this period of their lives when they are engaged in a very complicated discovery process of the world around imposing on them learning another language, which is taking place in a very different way of their first language acquisition, should be considered an unprofessional implementation that can negatively influence on students first language acquisition process.

By looking at this problem from a cultural perspective in a country with a multicultural background like Iran, it will be certainly revealed many other negative aspects of the work, which also have been not yet taken into the account. In our country, Iran, with confidence we can say that majority of the children until entering to schools do not know Farsi, because of the cultural and ethnical differences. Thus in this multicultural condition how can we expect of a child to learn two new and completely different languages, when his/her mother tongue as mentioned before has not yet figured out? Whit respect to these considerations implementation of the plan will have unpredictable consequences for the multicultural context of the society, which can be considered as a threat for their unique status.

At last but not at least anyone should ask that, how much budget is allocated for this project? Is all of the expense estimated? Any changing that happens in the educational curriculum imposes on the government a great deal of expense. Is the government’s budget sufficient for realization of the project? Making changes in the textbooks, preparing experienced and well-informed teachers who should conduct the project and preparing required technology are crucial things for achieving to anticipated goals.

According to the objections that proposed in the educational, cultural and economical grounds, we can come to this conclusion that this initiative of the Education Ministry around the issue of introducing English language teaching into primary schools is not a well-prepared programme and its implementation could have unpredicted negative effects on our educating system and multicultural context of society.
